Google brings the Nexus 5 and Nexus 7 to eight new European countries in the Google Play store

Google has given us an avalanche of news to grapple with this week, and with broader availability for the Nexus 5 and Nexus 7 it doesn’t appear to be slowing down any time soon.

Quietly, the company started offering its high-value smartphone and tablet in the Google Play store for eight new markets last night: Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Ireland, Netherlands, Portugal and Sweden. That’s almost double the number both devices were offered in before.
